ipod mini or creative zen? Options

[sweetxsimplicity]

..i'm not good with all this technology and pros and cons stuff, and i dunno which to get and who to believe. some people are like "omg only posers have ipods!!" and some people are like "ipods are wayy better than those mp3 players!" help me decide.

well, anyway, these are my pros and cons

mini: nicer, not many features, costs $100 to get replace battery
zen: uglier, a few more features, costs $40 to replace battery, UGLIER (<-- thats what im most concerned about, lol. ><)

sweetxsimplicity, get the micro.

why?

1- it lights up the buttons.

2- you can record lectures (i assume you're still in school. this is a big plus)

3- it sounds better

4- you can listen to the radio if you get tired of your tunes.

5- it's got a removable battery. buy two, and you double your battery life. it's very cheap to replace when it runs out (compared to other players)

i don't really care about the light up buttons, no electronics at school, actually, most people say the ipod mini sounds better, because its db or something like that is higher, but only by a little, so you can hardly tell the difference. and yeah, as i said the only thign im really 'concerned' about is the battery and radio.. lol

i think i might get the mini, but i reaaally want a radio, and i hate how they charge sooo much to replace the mini's battery
